Service & Support: Please thoroughly read this manual and view our online videos before contacting your retailer with questions. If after reading this manual and viewing the videos you still have questions please contact your RETAILER for support. Note that the pump is warranted and supported through March Manufacturing directly, not through your retailer or Blichmann Engineeringtm. Advanced features (automatic ramping) are accessible through software only and requires the purchase of an optional communication cable. Due to the advanced nature we do not provide direct factory support. Please work through your RETAILER if you have any questions after reading the manuals or viewing the online tutorial. Overview of Tower and Control Modules: The TOWER of POWERtm Modular Brewing Control is, by name, modular in nature. The user can purchase a single or dual control module separately and mount and integrate into their brewing system plumbing. Or if the user does not have the necessary valving, pumps etc., they can purchase the Tower module that provides all the needed plumbing and provides a convenient stand for the control module(s). If you already own a March 809/815 pump you can purchase the Tower without the pump. Note: the hoses that connect from the Tower to the pots are not included. If you are a TopTiertm owner, an optional mounting kit is available to mount it permanently to the stand. Tower with dual controllers Controller Module 3-way valve Sample port Mash and HLT labels provided Flow meter Pump 2 Requirements Of Your System: IMPORTANT! Read before unpacking or using this product! For the TOWER of POWERtm control system to function properly, your brewing system must meet some basic requirements. If your system is unable to meet these requirements please contact your RETAILER for guidance. We cannot guarantee the performance of the product if these basic minimums are not met. Hot liquor tanks perform well on nearly any system that can maintain a moderate flame. Mash Tuns require a couple basic performance parameters to be met for proper performance. Important! Do not use or install the TOWER of POWERtm equipment until you verify that your equipment is capable of the requirements below. If you are using Blichmann Engineering BoilerMakertm mash tun with our false bottom, and a TopTiertm burner you will not have equipment limitations. However, it is still important that you verify that your crush will allow adequate wort flow! Most stuck mashes are caused by too fine of a crush. It is also expected that Your mashing system must have the capability to continuously recirculate your wort using a pump for the duration of the mash without sticking. The flow rates in the chart below are minimum values. Finished Batch Size gal (L) Min Flow GPM (LPM) 5 (19) 0.5 (2.8) 10 (38) 0.75 (3.8) 15 (57) 1.25 (4.75) 20 (76) 1.5 (5.7) 32 (121) 2.25 (8.5) Important: Grain bed flow rates are highly dependent on crush quality. Move to a coarser crush if you are not able to flow at the above rates. It is also recommended that you allow a 10 min dough-in prior to turning on the pump to allow the air to purge from the grain and for the grain to fully absorb the water. Burner Requirement: Your burner must be capable of operating well at low power settings. If you cannot maintain a flame at about half power your system stability will suffer. Specifically, you should be able to reduce your heat to achieve an average heating rate of 1.5 F/min or less. To do this, recirculate your wort at the above rates or faster (use a stop watch and known volume to measure flow rate). Then apply heat on your burner at the lowest stable level. If over a 20-30 min period the increase in wort temperature divided by the time is at or below 1.5 F/min you have met this requirement. Fuel Supply: The solenoid valve supplied is suitable for up to 25 PSI propane regulators and residential natural gas. Fuel flow rate through this valve is adequate to power Blichmann Engineering TopTiertm burners on both fuels, however, other burners may need a larger solenoid valve (not included). Do NOT install a solenoid valve that draws over 2A at 120V including inrush or you may damage the ignition start relay which is NOT a warrantable failure. 3 What to Expect From the TOWER of POWERtm: The TOWER of POWERtm control system is a very precise instrument that has been developed to provide exceptional control over a very broad range of batch sizes, flow rates, and input heat values without the need to re-tune as each individual condition changes. However, it DOES require a reasonable set of parameters to be met to achieve these results. When operated within the parameters listed in the previous section, your system should be able to maintain your mash and HLT temperature to within 0.5 F (0.25C) of your set point. Please note that in the case of mash control, we are controlling the temperature of the wort into the top of the mash bed, not the temperature of the mash itself. The large mass of the mash will dampen out the fluctuations of the recirculation temperature and provide incredible stability. If you are not able to achieve the conditions above with your system that is OK, but it must be expected that stability and control will be compromised. Note: A slight overshoot of the recirculation temperature is normal and will NOT harm your enzymes. Enzymes are denatured over a period of time, not instantaneously. We have tuned this system to offer the best match of ramp speed and stability. The chart below shows a typical response curve from an actual brew session. Note that the mash temp will lag behind the recirculation temp by a few degrees as you ramp, but will settle in quickly as you reach the set point. Also note that the recirculation temperature (displayed on your controller) will overshoot by a few degrees. This is NORMAL. Also note that the actual mash temp overshoots very little and settles in quickly to set point, drifting slightly within the +/- 0.5F tolerance band. While we could eliminate the recirculation temp overshoot it would severely slow down your ramp rate. 160 StabilityBand +/‐ 0.5F 155 150 145 Recirc Mash Bed 140 135 130 125 120 115 Time (min) 110 0.0 3.3 6.7 10.0 13.3 16.7 20.0 23.3 26.7 30.0 33.3 36.7 40.0 43.3 4 It is expected that control stability will change slightly as you change your batch size, flow rate, or heat input. In general: Faster flow rates reduce oscillation and overshoot Lower heat input reduces oscillation and overshoot, but increases heating time Higher heat rates increase overshoot and oscillation – shoot for 1.5F/min Larger batch sizes generally exhibit less oscillation and overshoot That said, doing small batches on a system intended for large batch sizes will usually be difficult to control. If this is unavoidable, use the largest water to grist ratio possible, and use the lowest heat setting on your burner, and be ready to accept control outside the +/- 0.5F band. It is also expected that you will need to do a few experimental batches to dial in your specific system and become familiar with the operation and control of your system. You will quickly learn the flame height that results in a 1.5 F/min average ramp rate in your mash bed. You will also discover what flow rates you can achieve without sticking your mash. Note that rice hulls can aid in increasing recirculation rates. Assembly: The TOWER of POWERtm Modular Brewing Control ships partially assembled to allow it to be shipped more economically via ground carriers, and to protect it from shipping damage.

  • Funk Is Its Own Reward": an Analysis of Selected Lyrics In
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDIES LACY, TRAVIS K. B.A. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS, 2000 "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s Advisor: Professor Daniel 0. Black Thesis dated July 2008 This research examined popular funk music as the social and political voice of African Americans during the era of the seventies. The objective of this research was to reveal the messages found in the lyrics as they commented on the climate of the times for African Americans of that era. A content analysis method was used to study the lyrics of popular funk music. This method allowed the researcher to scrutinize the lyrics in the context of their creation. When theories on the black vernacular and its historical roles found in African-American literature and music respectively were used in tandem with content analysis, it brought to light the voice of popular funk music of the seventies. This research will be useful in terms of using popular funk music as a tool to research the history of African Americans from the seventies to the present. The research herein concludes that popular funk music lyrics espoused the sentiments of the African-American community as it utilized a culturally familiar vernacular and prose to express the evolving sociopolitical themes amid the changing conditions of the seventies era.

  • 2017 High Sierra Music Festival Program
    WELCOME! Festivarians, music lovers, friends old and new... WELCOME to the 27th version of our annual get-together! This year, we can’t help but look back 50 years to the Summer of Love, the summer of 1967, a year that brought us the Monterey Pop Festival (with such performers as Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin and The Grateful Dead) which became an inspiration and template for future music festivals like the one you find yourself at right now. But the hippies of that era would likely refer to what’s going on in the political climate of these United States now as a “bad trip” with the old adage “the more things change, the more they stay the same” coming back into play. Here we are in 2017 with so many of the rights and freedoms that were fought long and hard for over the past 50 years being challenged, reinterpreted or revoked seemingly at warp speed. It’s high time to embrace the two basic tenets of the counterculture movement. First is PEACE. PEACE for your fellow human, PEACE within and PEACE for our planet. The second tenet brings a song to mind - and while the Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band gets all the attention on its 50th anniversary, it’s the final track on their Magical Mystery Tour album (which came out later the same year) that contains the most apropos song for these times. ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE. LOVE more, fear less. LOVE is always our answer. Come back to LOVE.
